Questions about the diagram layout edit

@Useddenim: I'd like to ask you a couple of things about your amendments to my last edits (diff).

  • Deletion of the space between the station name (Court ) and the links to other lines in the second "row": I suppose it's an issue of uniformity/standardization among all the route diagrams, and I can understand it, but still I think that in this specific case a little spacing would increase readability and neatness a lot.
  • Change of position for the "bus" icon in the second last "row", from the diagram (next to other icons) to the text, after the station name (Cleveland ): what's the reason, and why in the Main Street Line and Riverfront Loop diagrams the same circumstance was treated differently?

  1. Habit; go ahead and add the space back if you want. The usual practice with RDTs is to use either   or {{pad}}, though.
  2. {{rail-interchange|bus}} is preferred to   (BUS) because of the |link= parameter in the former. The other diagrams just haven’t been updated.

Then, I'll go on to add the space back (using {{pad}}) and to update the other two diagrams. Thank you very much for your kind feedback Yak79 2.0 (talk) 20:00, 7 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
